Vibratory outlet hopper for bulk solids discharge

Reduce material handling challenges with highly efficient vibration technology, ensuring bulk solids flow smoothly and prevent common issues like bridging or rat holing. Ideal for operations requiring consistent discharge and feeding of powdery and granular materials.

Facilitates Continuous Material Discharge from Silos

The BA Bin Activators from WAMGROUP are expertly engineered to enhance the discharge of bulk solids from storage silos and hoppers. These devices address challenging flow issues such as bridging and rat holing, ensuring a consistent feed of materials like flour, grains, and fine powders across various industries including food processing, chemical production, and heavy manufacturing. The BA series employs a unique vibratory mechanism powered by OLI motovibrators, which initiates a gentle gyratory motion to facilitate smooth mass flow conditions. With processing capacities ranging from 5 to 320 m³/h, these units are available in carbon steel and stainless steel options to suit diverse environmental conditions and material compatibility needs. Designed for integration into existing systems, the BA Bin Activators feature a seamless SINT engineering polymer seal for a secure, leak-proof connection while requiring minimal energy input. In compliance with industry standards, they offer optional features such as ATEX Zone 22 certification and high-temperature resistant seals, ensuring operational safety and versatility. Easy cleaning and maintenance further enhance their appeal, making them a reliable choice for efficiency-driven production lines.

Benefits
